Description
Self-tightening series of wedge grips with load capacities of 50 lbf, 200 lbf, 1200 or 2,000 lbF. Each size of wedge grip has a different jaw width to accommodate different sample widths. Select from rubber or serrated, hardened steel jaw faces.
The jaws ride on rollers instead of sliding along the surface of the housing, as with conventional wedge grips. This unique design prevents jamming and improves gripping characteristics.
The spring loaded jaws open with a highly ergonomic rack and pinion lever mechanism. The smooth and easy operation of the lever greatly reduces operator hand fatigue.
